General procedure for removals, reductions, suspensions, or fines.

A removal, reduction in pay or position, suspension of forty or more work hours
in the case of an employee exempt from the payment of overtime compensation, a
suspension of twenty-four or more work hours in the case of an employee
required to be paid overtime compensation, a fine of forty or more
hours
of pay in the case of an employee exempt from the payment of overtime
compensation, a fine of twenty-four or more hours of pay
in the case of an employee required to be paid overtime compensation, or the
reduction or elimination of longevity, except as otherwise provided in
division-level 123:1 of the Administrative Code, shall be made for one or more
of the statutory reasons enumerated in section
124.34 of the Revised Code. The
employee shall be notified in writing, on a form provided by the director or
the state personnel board of review, or equivalent form, of the statutory
reasons for the action and the effective date thereof. This form shall advise
the employee of the right to appeal. Any such appeal shall be made in
accordance with the rules of the state personnel board of review. The denial of
a one-time pay supplement or a bonus to officer or employee is not a reduction
in pay for purposes of this rule.
